A DESTRUCTIVE FIRE
An Extensive Box Factory i'm Chicago
Completely Destroyed.

CHICAGO, Sept. IA destructive fire broke out
late last night in the extensive box factory OF
Maxwell Brothers The blaze started in a one
story building that had formerly been a stable
but had later been converted into workshop.
How the fire originated is mystery. as all lights
and fires were eXttnguiShed when the men auit
work, at O'Clock last evening. Maxwell Brothers
total loss amounts TO about Sl23,0W0. Almost the
Whole manufacturing plant, consisting Of large
two-StOry brick building, several one-Story buiid-
ingS and valuable equipment OF machinery were
destroyed. in fact, none or Maxwell Brothers
property escaped the names except their lumber
yard and stables. The fire spread To the planning
mill and sash factory OF Jno. q. LOOstein, which
adjOined the box factory on the east and caused a
damage OF $4,000 To the machinery and structure
OF a three-Story frame building which stood across
the street from LObSteln'S main plant.
II. Bourett il CO.'S planning mill, located on the
west side OF LoomiS street, was damaged to some
extent by reason OF sparks carried from the box
factory fire. Major Maxwell said that the value OF
his firms plant was about $16, 00O the loss as
above stated, being $125, 900, and that there was
insurance amounting 10 between $4,000 and
Sl0O 900. John q. Lobsteins loss is $4,000 part ly
covered by an insurance OF 5000. For time the
fire was of such 4 threatening character that its
spread to the many lumber yards and planning
mills In the vicinity seemed inevitable and four
alarms were given To the fire department. By
effective and prompt work the firemen confined
the blaze within the limits described above Three
hundred and sXty-eght employees OF Maxwell

OF the Wabash south-bound train, gave the final
touches 10 his engine, and pulled out just as usual
AT Harvey water-tank he pulled past several
lengths. The fireman mounted the tank and
called TO him to back, but he pulled farther ahead
The fireman returned TO the cab, and, seeing that
the engineer was dazed, himself backed down For
several stations the engineer would run past the
platform, and he would give vacant smile when
the fireman objected. Convinced at last that the
engineer was drunk, the fireman at Knoxville
Junction graSped the lever and saved the train
from going through the switch. The conductor
demonstrated with the smiling engineer, who re-
sponded "AQ right" The train was now late
and the engineer put on all steam. Having passed
Beacon, he gave yell and started 10 spring from
the caD window. The watchful fireman caught
him by the legs, and while he balanced him ON The
window ledge he managed with his foot 10 stop

back TO The baggage ear, where he was carefully
guarded TO 0ttumwa and there turned over TO the
authorities. He was brought home to-day and

telegram from Norwich, Conn.,, Sept. %, says:
Electric lights in country towns are deadly enc
mics Of birds Of passage during the migratory
son. The birds fly at night. They are attracted
into the cities by the white glare, which they
evidently mistake for daylight, and, as they swoop
down through the Streets are cut to pieces by the
myriad telephone, telegraph and electric wires.
The streets OF New London one morning this week
were strewn with the mangled bodies OF little gray
birds that had been sifted out OF flock that had
passed over the city the night before Similar oc-
curances have been noted at Putnam and other
places which have introduced the electric lights
this year, and In this city one night recently the
shrill cries OF innumerable small birds were
heard for hours, as they ctrcled overhead fascin.
ated by the inexplicable white light. In many in.
stances they plunged into the burners and per.
1shed like moths, their dead bodies being found on
the pavements In the morning. In other cities
they have flown into the stores at night in great
numbers, and many were caught while dazzled by
the light. In the nOckS were not few thrushes
